![]() Until the mid 17th century, this area was a part of the Elbląg estate and belonged to the Nowe Miasto (New Town). Originally, it was a forested area, which was systematically cleared since the beginning of the 18th century. The village was established in 1703. The sources from 1776 mentioned the following Mennonite surnames: Born, Coeler, Konrad, Dick, Engbrecht, Ens, Ewenvol, Fast, Friesen, Gebrand, Harder, Jantzen, Klaassen, Krahn, Leben, Neufeld, Nickel, Puls, Siemons, Steingard, Toews, Wirckentin, and Wiebe. In 1820, the village had 433 residents, including 139 Mennonites. Village layout - linear village on terpy located on eastern and western sides of the road that runs northward from the Marzęcino - Nowy Dwór Gdański highway. The cultural landscape of the village is detectable with a field layout and a system of draining canals. The southwestern section of the village has been transformed by buildings of the former state farm. The village has an old Dutch dairy (severely transformed) located in its southern section.
